I posted here a while back as we were going to be leaving France and I wanted some tips on resources for keeping up DD's interest in French.
I got some really helpful advice here and after scouring the car boot sales before we left, I found that there are some books that have gone down a storm with both DD and DH (he's the one reading them).
So, if you have a small child and are looking for some good books in French, here's a few suggestions:
Caca Boudin - Stephanie Blake (DD knows this one by heart)
Aboie, Georges ! - Jules Feiffer
Pique gratte et grogne - Michel Backès
Tarte à tout - Audrey Poussier et Matthieu Sylvander
Tout en haut - Mario Ramos
Le Monde a l'envers- Mario Ramos (pretty much anything by him is a safe bet)
Mariette, Soupir et crotte de bique - Irène Schwartz et Frédéric Stehr
Papa! - Philippe Corentin
N'oublie pas de te laver les dents - Philippe Corentin (another safe bet, plus even I find this book hilarious)
Ma culotte - Alan Mets
Les fantômes au Loch-Ness - Jacques Duquennoy
Roule galette - Natha Caputo et Pierre Belvès
La véritable histoire de la galette des rois - Marie-Anne Boucher et Rémi Hamoir
Series of books:
Penelope - Anne Gutman et Georg Hallensleben
Martine - my sister-in-law gave us her copies and DD loves them - Martine has done everything from chef's school to hot-air ballooning, so there's lots of vocab!
Caroline - again, an old series, but DD seems to enjoy it
We have also found these CD's to be a really good source of French kids' songs and not too grating that they can be played on long car journeys for (what feels like) hours on end:
80 Comptines à mimer & jeux de doigts - Eveil et découvertes
Les Après-midi des petites canailles - Naive Enfant
In terms of DVD's, we're struggling a bit:
Kirikou et la sorcière
La Fée Coquillette
Peppa Le Cochon (yep)
Anyway, hope this helps anybody who's in a similar situation...
